Document root element is missing
I am trying to parse a pretty simple xml document. Here it is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<leasedocuments>
<company name="PEOPLESGAS" contract="00199">
<masterlease>
<image name="Master Lease .pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Certificate of Insurance.pdf" visible="false"/>
<image name="Certificate of Authority.pdf" visible="false"/>
<image name="Amendment.pdf" visible="false"/>
</masterlease>
<schedule number="01">
<!-- This is section 1 -->
<image name="File Notes.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Lease Application.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Lease Order-Equipment Schedule.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Equipment Addendum.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Addendum to LO-ES.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="D & A-Certificate of Acceptance.pdf" visible="true"/>
<!-- This is section 2 -->
<image name="Transaction Summary Sheet.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Checks.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Invoices.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="PO's.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Equipment Backup.pdf" visible="true"/>
<!-- This is section 3 -->
<image name="Copies of Loan Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Cover Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Loan Calculations.pdf" visible="false"/>
<!-- This is section 4 -->
<image name="Insurance Certificate.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Voided Lease Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="FASB 13 Test.pdf" visible="false"/>
</schedule>
<schedule number="02">
<!-- This is section 1 -->
<image name="File Notes.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Lease Application.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Lease Order-Equipment Schedule.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Equipment Addendum.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Addendum to LO-ES.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="D & A-Certificate of Acceptance.pdf" visible="true"/>
<!-- This is section 2 -->
<image name="Transaction Summary Sheet.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Checks.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Invoices.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="PO's.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Equipment Backup.pdf" visible="true"/>
<!-- This is section 3 -->
<image name="Copies of Loan Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Cover Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Loan Calculations.pdf" visible="false"/>
<!-- This is section 4 -->
<image name="Insurance Certificate.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="Voided Lease Documentation.pdf" visible="true"/>
<image name="FASB 13 Test.pdf" visible="false"/>
</schedule>
</company>
</leasedocuments>
Here's the JSP code:
<%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/x.tld" prefix="x" %>
<%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/c.tld" prefix="c" %>
<%@taglib uri="/WEB-INF/taglibs-log.tld" prefix="log" %>
<h1>——— Leased Documents ———</h1>
<x:parse xml="xmldoc_string" var="document"/>
<x:out select="count($document//company)" />
Nothing much to this. The error occurs at runtime.

This tag will attempt to parse the literal string "xmldoc_string," which
explains the "Document root element is missing" message. Instead, you'll
need to refer to this string (assuming it's stored as a scoped variable or
something similar) with an EL expression. In other words, if you've
called it 'xmldoc_string' in one of the scopes, then
<x:parse xml="${xmldoc_string}" var="document"/>
should work.
